The Bartosch Pond

I came home from work today and Teresa was rather upset. Apparently since it's been around 110 degrees lately AND since our pool pump/filter system doesn't work anymore, our pool has turned into a slough of green and brown floating slime. We were both worried about the dogs, especially Buddy. If there's water, he'll swim in it, no matter how bad it is.

I went ahead and threw 10 bags of shock into the pool and it appeared to help. After a half hour the slime had disolved and only a discoloration of the bottom and sides of the pool remained.
